(BACK IN THE HOSPITAL)

Hatori paced back and forth from being in Haru's room, where they were still trying to stabilize his condition and the waiting room so he could make sure that everyone else was okay. Everyone was a nervous wreck especially by the time Kyo, Tohru and Yuki had finally gotten there.

There was a lot of talk about what happened. Yet at the exact same time there was a weird awkward silence around everyone. It seemed to them that Haru would always be there when something was wrong with someone else. I mean he did get sick but he always got better. Yuki was the one with the weak immune system, not Haru after all.

Tohru sat quietly next to Yuki silently. She wanted to cry. The last time she was in the hospital her mother died. She didn't want to lose Haru as well. Tears started forming in her eyes as she just looked down at the ground.

Kyo sat there quietly as well on the other side of Tohru. Even though he never really gotten along with Haru, that didn't mean that he wanted him to do something as stupid as this. What was he thinking? Kyo kept asking himself this.

It'd been a while since they heard any real news about Haru's condition. When Yuki, Kyo and Tohru finally arrived they learned exactly what led to Haru's admission into the hospital. Yuki nearly collapsed hearing what happened. Kyo stared speechlessly. Tohru started crying for the first time that day.

Yuki felt terrible. I treated him like crap. Haru, please be okay.

Rin had already walked off lost in thought. After all, Haru was one of the only guys to get remotely close to her. He was and is one of a kind especially with her.

The hall stood still for a moment until everyone heard a sound coming from Haru's room that made time stand still for a moment with the sudden rush of doctor's rushing to his room. The sound of a flat line filled the air.

(Day 6 Part 1)

A very sleep deprived Haru started walking steadily with Momiji by his side. Yet again, a series of thoughts kept filling Haru's mind, which made him more of a walking zombie than an actual person (except the part about the blood and wanting to eat people part). It was this morning though that body was much more coordinated than his mind, in other words it was a good thing he took martial arts for this reason.

For a while now girls have been trying to talk to Haru, especially after Rin broke up with him but Haru hasn't even responded to any of their advances and has no intention to even respond to them. Thoughts of Rin filled his mind and even more so now that he had overheard her conversation with Kagura from the other night.

Haru sighed as he went to his locker to put stuff in. The truth of the matter was, he started not to care anymore. In a way it's sort of a scary thought, the idea of Haru not caring. Haru had always been the one to try to help people, well that is only when he's White Haru. (Black Haru had a tendency to want to hurt people and such.) His "black" tendencies had become less prevalent recently. He knew that they were still there and that at any moment recently they would awaken again.

Normally, Haru would try to keep his "black" tendencies from arising but lately, he seemed to not care one bit if they took him over. One thing or another could trigger White Haru to turn into Black Haru.

He stood there by his locker, lost in thought, when he heard an all too familiar voice behind him.

"Move it," he heard Kyo's voice nag at him. "You stupid cow."

Haru's eyes twitched slightly as he turned around.

"Why should I MOVE it?" Haru emphasized on the word move. On a normal day, Haru would have made a snide comment but today he was running a bit of a short temper.

This caught the attention of Yuki that was just walking by along with Momiji, who was with him.

"I need to get something to that door," Kyo furthered.

"Find another way to get there," Haru insisted as he slammed his locker door shut.

Yuki and Momiji just stood there watching, not knowing what to do. This was so unlike Haru.

Kyo had a bad morning as well. He had just realized, by the help of Tohru and Yuki that he had to begin working on a project for class. Then Yuki and Kyo had yet another fight, but that was nothing new. Now, Haru was in his way.

"What's your problem?" Kyo asked Haru.

"What do you mean what's my problem?" Haru seethed.

For some reason Kyo really bothered him this morning. Haru's black tendencies hadn't even taken over him.

"Stop being stupid!" Kyo spattered at him.

Out of all the things Kyo could have said, stupid was not the best choice of words for the moment. Haru had been called 'stupid' for a good portion of his life. He didn't need Kyo to remind him of it.

Yuki saw a look in Haru's eyes that slightly scared him. It was a look that normally meant that he had turned "black". That's the thing though Haru wasn't even black. His eyes flickered slightly with agitation and possibly even aggression as they looked at Kyo.

Kyo tried to push Haru, which on normal circumstances he would be able to, but Haru stopped him and pushed Kyo away.

After that Haru stormed off.
